Econz Wireless, a Leader in Mobile Business Solutions, is promoting
their "Timecard"
product, to Capture Mobile Time and Attendance in compliance with
Federal and State Wage-Hour laws. State and federal labor laws generally
require accurate and tedious record keeping for all "non-exempt"
employees regarding a variety of work issues, including hours worked,
mandated lunch periods and breaks taken by employees. Employers can find
it difficult, time-consuming and burdensome to comply with these laws
and sometimes find themselves at a disadvantage when responding to class
action lawsuits and audits conducted by the U.S. Department of Labor
and/or state administrative law enforcement agencies.

ECONZ Wireless offers its ECONZ Timecard (Flash
Demo), a mobile phone application from which employees log time,
attendance and job information via a mobile time sheet directly from
their wireless phones. With location based services (LBS) capabilities,
including Smart Fencing technology, ECONZ Timecard also provides
employers with legally mandated documentation that mobile employees are
within or outside specific locations when they log their work time and
take lunches and break periods in accordance with the law.

The California Supreme Court, in the case of Murphy v. Kenneth Cole,
recently confirmed the existence of a three-year statute of limitations
regarding violations of California's wage-hour laws, making it important
that employers with mobile work forces take steps to ensure not only
that the hours worked by their mobile employees are accurately recorded,
but also that they can produce, in any legal proceeding, actual records
setting forth the hours worked by, and meal and rest periods taken by,
such employees.

According to Santa Ana, Calif.-based Michael Procopio, a veteran
attorney specializing in labor and employment law, documenting rest and
lunch periods, as well as actual hours worked by mobile employees, is a
formidable challenge confronting employers today.

Procopio states, "When it comes to record keeping, the burden is on
employers to document both the hours worked by their employees and the
lunches or breaks taken by them."

Procopio adds that having employees sign general waivers to release
employers from paying for work done during meal or break times as well
as during overtime periods is not acceptable under the law.

"Employers throughout California -- and even those based in other states
who have employees performing work in the state -- are governed by
California's wage-hour laws, which are among the strictest in the
country," says Procopio. He adds that both federal and state record
keeping statutes have required documentation of hours worked for many
years, and these agencies have stepped up enforcement efforts.

Most employers have traditionally complied with legal requirements using
time clocks and sign-in/sign-out sheets. While these procedures have
sufficed in situations where employees work at fixed locations
throughout the workday (for example, shop workers, assembly line workers
or office workers where supervisors monitored their whereabouts), they
have failed in workplace settings involving mobile employees such as
drivers, home healthcare employees, service technicians, cable
television installation workers, construction workers, etc. With Econz
tracking and LBS capabilities, including Smart Fencing, our ECONZ
Timecard mobile phone solution makes it possible for employers of mobile
workers to get into compliance or remain compliant and, therefore,
reduce or eliminate their liability.

ECONZ Timecard is a two-part Web-based software product that enables
mobile professionals to log clock-in times, break times, meal periods,
job categories and clock-out times in addition to accessing past and
present time sheet information, allowing for automated time keeping and
payroll transactions. ECONZ Timecard also helps administrators view the
status and locations of their mobile employees at any time for general
supervision purposes, accurate budgeting and customer service issues.

ECONZ Timecard Smart Fencing technology makes it possible for workforce
managers to set up location-based parameters for work-related or
break-related time periods. With the parameters in place, managers view
and document in real time or after the fact whether employees are where
they need to be when clocking in and out.
